Republic is an equity crowdfunding platform that enables investors, including non-accredited ones, to invest in various types of private investment opportunities such as startups, real estate projects, video games, and crypto offerings. Launched in 2016 by founders with extensive experience in the venture capital industry, Republic has grown to support over 100 companies in raising funds, amassing a community of hundreds of thousands of investors. The platform differentiates itself through features like its trademarked "Crowd SAFE" investment structure, low investment minimums starting from USD 10, and a rigorous multi-stage vetting process where less than 5% of applicants get listed.

Republic's key offerings encompass early-stage startup investments, typically structured using its proprietary "CrowdSAFE" variation of the traditional SAFE (Simple Agreement for Future Equity) model. This enables investors to obtain future equity in the startups without the complications of convertible notes. Republic has expanded its investment verticals over time, now covering areas like fractional real estate investing, video game funding (through its acquisition of Fig), and crypto projects. The company generates revenue by charging successful fundraising companies a commission of 6% in cash plus an additional 2% in the form of securities issued.

While startup investments inherently carry high risks with potential total loss, Republic emphasizes transparent risk disclosure and investor education. Its highly-rated mobile app and user-friendly interface aim to simplify the investment process. For companies listed on the platform, Republic conducts comprehensive due diligence evaluating factors such as the team, product, market potential, and business traction before approval.

Key customers and partnerships

In April 2020, Republic acquired the video game funding platform Fig, expanding its offerings into the gaming industry. This strategic acquisition enabled Republic to provide investment opportunities in both new and established video game titles.
